What does MOSSO mean in Scrabble?
adjective
music
Moved, animated, or quickened in pace; a direction in written music calling for a livelier tempo.
Mosso most often appears joined to più, as in più mosso, telling a performer to speed up and add energy to a passage that had settled into a slower tempo. It works much like molto in that it modifies another tempo marking rather than standing as a tempo name on its own, and it reaches English performers straight from Italian scores.
